Tools

In the IROHLA project we identified, developed or evaluated tools for different objectives such as understanding the needs of the target group, promoting health literacy of individuals or communities, enhancing implementation of health literacy interventions and guidelines, and assessment of a health literacy friendliness of the environment. We identified a lot of tools and checklists that can be useful for policymakers, professionals, educators, researchers and other experts.
